Tom and his son treated me exceptionally great. They were so helpful regarding a used van I had purchased, thoroughly going over it both visually and digitally all the while explaining things to me and making me feel assured about my purchase allowing me to feel safe to travel with it. All repairs needed were done in a timely manner At a reasonable cost. I would highly recommend them

You can feel the honest energy from Tom when speaking to him about service your vehicle. Very fair pricing and fast service. Toms is nothing like the other shops that only look to drain the money out of your wallet. Please don’t waste your time calling other shops dude, JUST COME TO TOMS!
